A real coach that makes these babies play within an actual offensive and defensive system.

Ouch!
In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.

Good read
Thanks. Yeah, I hope he wouldn't be happy with all the bad play and losses. This was heartening to hear:

"I love that we're struggling almost because we can learn from it and get better and move forward from it," Durant said. "Obviously, I don't love struggling. But I like finding good things out of winning basketball games. The more film we watch, the more pride we take. The tougher it is, the better we'll become from it. That's my mentality the whole time."

Now, let's see if we can learn from it and get better in time for this post season.

So does that mean they HAVEN'T been good in the 4th quarters this year??

Huh. And here I was just trusting the eyeball test.

Great news. Bol and Udicka deserve all of Eubanks back up C minutes.

I still think Little could carve out a rotation spot. I think his recent injuries have been a big factor why he hasn’t been good recently, sore knees and the fact his face got broken, rough combo there.

Fired Monty because the Suns were choking in big playoff games, and now it seems like we choke in every game.

I’ve seen Lee on the bench recently. I wonder if he’s coming back this season?

Seems like the former was better. Probably don’t even make the playoffs with the latter.

I thought I read somewhere today that he’s shooting to be back at the end of the regular season

I could be misremembering but I've long thought sometime after the All-Star break was the timeline for him to possibly be game ready.

I like Lee, but he's yet another shooter/scorer, not exactly what our team is lacking. Will be happy to get him back when he's ready, but there's no need for him to rush it.
